Hello from Mrs. McCauley
"If you have faith the size of a mustard seed nothing will be impossible for you." - Matthew 17:20
I hope you are all having an enjoyable summer. We miss seeing everyone's smiling faces at school but are taking the time to get everything ready for this coming school year! I cannot contain my excitement as we continue to grow our St. Sebastian STEM Academy family. To our new families, we send out our newsletter weekly during the school year but will do so monthly during the summer. Please read below for important dates, information, pictures, and anything else going on in our school community!
This past week we held our first STEM Camp for incoming 5K and 1st graders. Our week was busy learning about 3D printing, robotics, coding, engineering, and more! Take a look through the pictures below to see our students engaged in problem solving with their classmates.
We are still working on getting the ground ready for the playground from North Park. If anyone has any connections with grading, cement, or engineered mulch, please let me know! Once we have those resources figured out, we will need a big group to make the reconstruction happen in the next few months. Please continue to check your emails for more information on this.
